An open letter to Shuswap MLA Greg Kyllo: Please put an end to the teachers strike.

An open letter to Shuswap MLA Greg Kyllo:

Please put an end to the teachers strike.

Speaking as a grandparent, what could be more important than the education of our youth?

The cutbacks your government is imposing are demoralizing and destructive to our education system.

The children in today’s society need more not less. They need the librarians, teacher assistants, speech therapists and dedicated teachers so that all have equal opportunities for success.

Each of our four children received a great education in Salmon Arm. I would urge you to continue that standard they enjoyed, not destroy it.

Please get a moderator to sit down with both sides and end this destructive pattern. The government owes it to our youth.
